Comment:

These are songs that were left over from my previous mixes of the 1930s. Of all the years that I've reviewed in this decade, 1933 was explored the most in depth, so songs from that year represent almost half of the songs used here. Of all the artists that I've enjoyed, Al Bowlly leads the pack and so he dominates this mix as well with seven songs chosen with him as vocalist. Track 17 is an exception in this compilation of songs, not being left over from a prior mix (since I still have mixes to do for the 1930-1932 period, and haven't really started yet).
